Sinopses(1)
O grupo investiga os ignóbeis planos de um vilão mascarado cujo objetivo é controlar a cidade de Coolsville e para isso manipula a “Máquina dos Monstros” que reproduz os antigos inimigos da Mistério S.A., tais como O Fantasma de 10.000 Volts, o Capitão Cutler e o Creeper. A investigação leva-os até ao museu da cidade onde assistem ao lançamento de um livro e respetivo evento de passadeira vermelha e por lá conhecem Patrick (Seth Green), o misterioso curador do museu, e uma insuportável jornalista (Alicia Silverstone) por quem o nosso acarinhado Fred desenvolve uma paixoneta.

The second Scooby-Doo replaced the haunted island with a "city of mystery" and the appearance of the monsters was visibly better than in the first one, but the whole thing is again spoiled by an infantile script that doesn't even try to entertain the viewer with a "piece of paper". The solid action of the opening museum scene or the mine sequence are unfortunately spoiled by the ubiquitous attempts at humour, which at times wallows in awkwardness.

Um argumento de tretas de clichés, que sofre sobretudo de uma pós-produção rápida, que só teve tempo para colar algo colorido e de longa-metragem. As cenas caras com efeitos digitais tiveram assim prioridade relativamente às cenas dedicadas aos personagens. Os protagonistas originais Fred e Daphne apenas complementam os mais «desenvolvidos» Shaggy e Velma. Os efeitos digitais, apesar de decentes, são insuficientes para satisfazer um divertimento familiar complexo. As cenas de luta de ação (Daphne com uma lança, Fred num chopper) são uma surpresa positiva - Raja Gosnell devia ter experimentado o género de ação. Só me ri uma vez, numa cena com Velma, vestida com uma roupa sintética apertada e sexy.

At the beginning, I could barely contain my near disgust, but in the end the film managed to earn two very dirty stars, which I honestly feel ashamed of, thanks to some good special effects and a few funny situations, at least by child standards. In order for this creation to be equal to the original series, it would have to get rid of the omnipresent and unbearable yelling.

Compared to the previous film, I have to take a star off. The film does follow the path trodden by the first, and in the tradition of most sequels, it tries to be bigger, bigger, and bigger, but something about it left me with a bad taste in my mouth. In fact, it seemed to me that the second Scooby-Doo was made mostly out of necessity and not because the filmmakers were having fun. And that sentiment rubbed off on me more than a few times. It's a shame, because in some scenes, Monsters Unleashed managed to evoke the atmosphere of the original Ghostbusters and definitely had more to offer.

It's not as stupid as the first installment, at least not at first glance, but it's also not particularly entertaining. The characters are boring and consistently flat throughout. The problem is that from the beginning, it's clear how it will turn out. That wouldn't matter for a short, twenty-minute cartoon episode, but it's a real problem with a feature film. This is an incredible mess and probably won't even appeal to children.
